Alcaraz strolls through to the final!

This time, it's a sure thing. At the age of 21, Carlos Alcaraz is set to become the youngest Olympic medalist in the history of tennis.

After a well-executed match, the Spanish prodigy has just booked his place in the final of these Games.

Up against a confident Auger-Aliassime, Alcaraz pulled out all the stops, tormenting a completely outmatched Canadian (6-1, 6-1 in 1h14).

Efficient on serve, surgical on return and very solid in the exchange, he completely blew away the 19th player in the world (5 winners, 23 unforced errors).

Very powerful in the exchange, "Carlito" also quickly proved to be unstoppable, or almost, leaving Auger-Aliassime no option.

Constantly running out of time, the 23-year-old was never able to get his game going.

The world number 3 is now awaiting the name of his opponent for Sunday's final. It will be either Lorenzo Musetti or Novak Djokovic.
